Words cannot adequately express my sincere thanks for all your hard work, caring and patience throughout the care of my mother Lorraine. At first she was mad because you made her work and would not let her be lazy in taking care of herself. But as the years went by she respected your knowledge and patience when she had her visits. Thank you again. Keep up the good work. I wish you many successes in future endeavors.

Sincerely,

Hi Dr. T.,

Thank you for all the excellent care & concern you had for Aunt Gloria. You never gave up on her no matter what she said or did. I had nicknamed you her "Warrior Doctor" who would fight for her. And you always did!

With love,

Dear Dr. Sirinian,

My husband and I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the patience and kindness with which you cared for my mother during a recent hospitalization. Your wonderful bedside manner helped her feel at ease. You made yourself accessible and took time to explain my mother's condition to me. You also made a point to share a very sweet story about my mom with my husband and me. We are incredibly grateful that doctors like you are in our midst.

Dear Dr. Tilahun,

I am sending this e-mail now because it is too late to call and I cannot let another moment pass before I say thank you. On behalf of myself and the entire family, I’d like to express our heartfelt gratitude for all that you are doing for my father. Just the way you look after him until now as if he were your own father was more than we could ever hope for from a medical doctor in these difficult times. But now this…you arranging things for diabetic meals for him…I don’t know what else to say but, may God richly reward you for your kindness.

With sincere gratitude.

Dear Doctor Sirinian,

My reason for writing: you are very much in my prayer, in my heart, on my mind. You must know that I am - will be - eternally grateful for all your heroic efforts in taking care of my friend. God's ways are not our ways.

Doctor, you literally pulled out all the stops…I can attest to that.
Seriously, you are #1 in my book!

Dr. Sirinian,

I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH!!!! Because of your diligence and genuine concern for the well-being of your patients, the cancer was detected in my mom early enough to take action.

All Together Now

The skill of the doctor
The miracle resulting from tests and
exams
With all the yuckiness and discomfort-
The answers to the puzzling
Why and how and what is wrong-
The dedication of the nurses-
The absolute and complete caring of the
Aides who do the dirtiest work with the
Loving care of a mother
Who changes her babies diapers,
No less than if each patient were their
Own child
Even respiratory helping the essential
Part to breath
But also sharing personalities, interests,
And cares, and even sometimes silliness-
What part is the most important for
Patient healing?
Let me not forget the physical therapy
People who work you over and over and
Over with extreme patience
Kindness and encouragement
And occupational therapy who help you
Do thing for yourself
Which is more important for the healing
of the patient?
Which one should be rewarded?
Or given the most credit?
Who is most responsible?
Somebody or something deserves the most
Credit
Recognition for the patient getting better-
No-not someone or something
This result from
ALL TOGETHER NOW!

My thanks to you.

March 2010Carole and Jim Zuidema

Please accept my gratitude for the services rendered to me at Swedish Hospital. The nurses and aides were very understanding and caring which are good qualities to hold a job like that when patients are in so much need.

Thanks and God bless always.

Gloria Kerrill and Edward Glab

Dear Dr. Tilahun,

Our families would like to thank you for the excellent care you gave our mother, Elynore Glab.

We were very fortunate to have found you when she broke her hip. She wouldn't have survived that trauma without you and the medical attention she received from you and the staff at Swedish Covenant Hospital. You enabled her to live at home the past two and a half years and that was always her fondest wish. Thanks to you we were able to have her with us for a few more years.

She was a loving mother and we will truly miss her.

It was always a pleasure conferring with you Dr. Tilahun. May God Bless You in a hundred ways for your compassionate care.
